Tesla batteries are expected to last 300-500,000 miles. Just about any car at around 200k mikes has depreciated severely and is likely facing some major repairs. I’d call this close to a wash. That being said, long trips with an EV are more of an experience- you’re not getting there as quickly and will need to enjoy some parking lots. EVs are not quite a full replacement for many.
